VENTILATION REQUIREMENTS
Installation must assure complete isolation of the
living space of the mobile home or recreational vehi-
cle and the combustion system of the refrigerator.
Certified installation requires that one lower com-
bustion air intake and one upper exhaust vent be
used. Not only must the combustion kits be installed
correctly, but the construction around the rear of the
refrigerator allow good circulation and seal off the
combustion products from the living space. Cut-Out
dimensions for factory supplied vents are shown in
TABLE 1. The specified vent kit for this refrigerator,
certified by A.G.A. and CGA, must be installed as
directed by this manual without modification. Any de-
viation or substitution other than the specified vent
kit will void this certification and the factory war-
ranty of the refrigerator.
A.G.A./CGA certification permits installing the refrig-
erator with zero inch (0") minimum clearance at the
sides, back, top, and bottom. This certification does
not specify any maximum clearance. However, the
clearances around the sides and rear should be mini-
mized in order to create a proper air draft necessary
for good refrigerator performance. The condenser
and absorber tubes must receive a continual supply
of cooler air in order to maintain proper refrigerator
cooling. The air passage (ventilation zone) from the
lower vent door to the refrigerator coils and from the
coils up through the roof vent must be unobstructed.
A
WARNING
INADEQUATE VENTILATION OR PARTIAL BLOCK-
AGE OF FLUE EXHAUST CAN PRODUCE CARBON
MONOXIDE WHILE OPERATING IN GAS MODE. IN-
HALING FUMES CAN CAUSE DIZZINESS, NAUSEA,
OR IN EXTREME CASES, DEATH.
TABLE 1
VENT KITS AND DIMENSIONS (INCHES)
The Lower vent is also to be utilized as a service
entrance door. Opening of the lower vent must be
flushed or below the bottom of the refrigerator. In the
event of a propane leak, the properly installed lower
vent door will allow the propane to
"Weep" to the
outside at the floor level, preventing large pockets of
gas from collecting.
